knockout

The kick connected below the chin.

It seemed to take a while for the hands to reach the intruding leg and push it aside. But the damage was already done. He couldn't sense the motion of his limbs anymore. Every thing seemed to happen so slow. He couldn't make sense of the fiery muscles that were constantly under his vision until now.

Even before the frantic fear of an unseen opponent could set in, he felt darkness seep into his eyes. A refreshing cold pumped through his head as it seemed to make contact with something hard.

A faint roar passed through his ears as if a gigantic eagle were swooping down on him. Bliss!
